The pattern of this Report follows that used previously. Reactions are classified according to the type of compound prepared wherever possible. Exceptions are those reactions which are considered to be alcohol protection or deprotection procedures. Miscellaneous reactions of a particular class of compound are listed at the end of each section. Cross referencing is given to previous reports up to Volume 8. 

Miscellaneous Pharmaceutical Processes. Solvent extraction is used for the preparation of many products that ate either isolated from naturally occurring materials or purified during synthesis. Among these are sulfa dmgs, methaqualone [72-44-6] phenobarbital [50-06-6] antihistamines, cortisone [53-06-5] estrogens and other hormones (qv), and reserpine [50-55-5] and alkaloids (qv). Common solvents for these appHcations are chloroform, isoamyl alcohol, diethyl ether, and methylene chloride. Distribution coefficient data for dmg species are important for the design of solvent extraction procedures. These can be determined with a laboratory continuous extraction system (AKUEVE) (244). 

Experimental procedures have been described in which the desired reactions have been carried out either by whole microbial cells or by enzymes (1—3). These involve carbohydrates (qv) (4,5) steroids (qv), sterols, and bile acids (6—11) nonsteroid cycHc compounds (12) ahcycHc and alkane hydroxylations (13—16) alkaloids (7,17,18) various pharmaceuticals (qv) (19—21), including antibiotics (19—24) and miscellaneous natural products (25—27). Reviews of the microbial oxidation of aUphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons (qv) (28), monoterpenes (29,30), pesticides (qv) (31,32), lignin (qv) (33,34), flavors and fragrances (35), and other organic molecules (8,12,36,37) have been pubflshed (see Enzyp applications, industrial Enzyt s in organic synthesis Elavors AND spices). 

The following are somewhat subjective selections from the vast amount of recent published material on solid proplnts. These short abstracts are grouped under the headings of ignition, combustion, reactivity, detonability safety, analytical procedures data, and miscellaneous. In each grouping the abstracts are arranged chronologically... 

Although the use of barbiturates and miscellaneous sedatives and hypnotics for sedation has largely been replaced by the antianxiety drugs (see Chap. 30), they occasionally may be used to provide sedation before certain types of procedures such as cardiac catheterization or the administration of a local or general anesthesia Sedative doses usually given during daytime hours, may be used to treat anxiety and apprehension. Fhtients with chronic disease may require sedation, not only to reduce anxiety, but also as an adjunct in the treatment of their disease... 

This chapter discusses drug s used to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs) and certain miscellaneous drag > used to relieve the symptoms associated with an overactive bladder (involuntary contractions of the detrusor or bladder muscle). Structures of the urinary system that may be affected include the bladder (cystitis), prostate gland (prostatitis), the kidney, or the urethra (see Pig. 47-1). These drug s also help control the discomfort associated with irritation of the lower urinary tract mucosa caused by infection, trauma, surgery, and endoscopic procedures. 

Although intrinsically unappealing, this category of synthesis has been used occasionally in several forms, especially with cyclohexane rather than benzene substrates. The following miscellaneous examples suggest that the procedure is surely worth further development. 

Miscellaneous Serum Components. The discussion of the tests most commonly done in the Laboratory of Neonatology, above, illustrates the various types of instrumentation used. Here, various other procedures will be discussed at random in order to illustrate some basic principles, which have many applications. 

Miscellaneous Reactions of Phosphines.- The role of chiral phosphines as ligands in the catalysis of reactions leading to the formation of chiral products has been reviewed.1111 A procedure for the determination of the enantiomeric excess in chiral phosphines has been developed, based on 13C n.m.r. studies of the diastereoisomeric complexes formed by phosphines with the chiral pinenyl nickel bromide complex. 111 Studies of the sulphonation of triphenylphosphine and of chiral arylphosphines have been reported in attempts to prepare water soluble ligands which aid... 

The end points of precipitation titrations can be variously detected. An indicator exhibiting a pronounced colour change with the first excess of the titrant may be used. The Mohr method, involving the formation of red silver chromate with the appearance of an excess of silver ions, is an important example of this procedure, whilst the Volhard method, which uses the ferric thiocyanate colour as an indication of the presence of excess thiocyanate ions, is another. A series of indicators known as adsorption indicators have also been utilized. These consist of organic dyes such as fluorescein which are used in silver nitrate titrations. When the equivalence point is passed the excess silver ions are adsorbed on the precipitate to give a positively charged surface which attracts and adsorbs fluoresceinate ions. This adsorption is accompanied by the appearance of a red colour on the precipitate surface. Finally, the electroanalytical methods described in Chapter 6 may be used to scan the solution for metal ions. Table 5.12 includes some examples of substances determined by silver titrations and Table 5.13 some miscellaneous precipitation methods. Other examples have already been mentioned under complexometric titrations. 

Methods for the A-acylation of similar heterocycles, such as simple thiazolidinethiones, have been reported since 1977, namely acyl chlorides in miscellaneous conditions,586 or carboxylic acids under DCC-activation.60,61 However the easiest and most effective method involves acyl chlorides or carboxylic anhydrides in the presence of an amine.47 Applying that procedure on carbohydrate scaffolds Rollin and co-workers62 reported the synthesis of diverse /V-acylated OZTs. The reactions were performed with good yields and the /V-selective acylation was ascertained by NMR— namely the thiocarbonyl 13C chemical shift (Scheme 41). Thanks to the dual nature of the carbanion drifting in the reaction,596 60 no competitive formation of the thioester, as mentioned by Plusquellec el al. in the case of benzothiazole, was observed. 

Part—I has three chapters that exclusively deal with General Aspects of pharmaceutical analysis. Chapter 1 focuses on the pharmaceutical chemicals and their respective purity and management. Critical information with regard to description of the finished product, sampling procedures, bioavailability, identification tests, physical constants and miscellaneous characteristics, such as ash values, loss on drying, clarity and color of solution, specific tests, limit tests of metallic and non-metallic impurities, limits of moisture content, volatile and non-volatile matter and lastly residue on ignition have also been dealt with. Each section provides adequate procedural details supported by ample typical examples from the Official Compendia. Chapter 2 embraces the theory and technique of quantitative analysis with specific emphasis on volumetric analysis, volumetric apparatus, their specifications, standardization and utility. It also includes biomedical analytical chemistry, colorimetric assays, theory and assay of biochemicals, such as urea, bilirubin, cholesterol and enzymatic assays, such as alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, salient features of radioimmunoassay and automated methods of chemical analysis. Chapter 3 provides special emphasis on errors in pharmaceutical analysis and their statistical validation. The first aspect is related to errors in pharmaceutical analysis and embodies classification of errors, accuracy, precision and makes... 

Miscellaneous. A number of reports of the synthesis of unusual heterocyclic phosphines have appeared. Improved procedures for the synthesis of l,3,5-triaza-7-phospha-adamantane (48) have been reported,40-41 and the triazaphosphahomo-adamantane (49) has also been prepared.42 Routes to the large ring phosphacyclo-alkanes (50) have been described,43 and the bicyclic diphosphine (51) has been isolated from the reaction of white phosphorus with o-dichlorobenzene in the presence of transition-metal halides.44... 

SAE has established a Fuel Cells Standard Forum that is chartered with the establishment of standards and test procedures for fuel cell powered vehicles. The committee was established in 1999. The standards will cover the safety, performance, reliability and recyclability of fuel cell systems in vehicles with emphasis on efficiency and environmental impact. The standards will also establish test procedures for uniformity in test results for the vehicle/systems/components performance, and define interface requirements of the systems to the vehicle. Task Groups have been formed in the areas of safety, performance, reliability, emissions, recyclability, interface and miscellaneous. 

A small amount of solid may be dissolved in water and ammonium ion determined by the ion-selective electrode method, or miscellaneous colorimetric or titrimetric procedures (see Ammonia). Sulfate ion maybe determined by ion chromatography. 

Unfortunately, the literature has only very general reaction details, yet, like the original authors, we believe that this reaction has considerable synthetic value and should be explored further. For this reason, we prefer not to relegate this method simply to our Miscellaneous Procedures section. 

In the following pages we summarize some of the common deficiencies of potency method validation. These common problems are grouped together into categories such as HPLC instrumentation, procedural steps, and miscellaneous errors.
